SAVE CAL POLY SWIM AND DIVE: The Final Push
Donation protected
On June 16th, President Armstrong announced that the previous efforts to reinstate the Cal Poly Swim and Dive team were not enough. The earlier fundraiser has been refunded.
My name is Sofia Vargas. Both my brother, Camilo Vargas, and I were proud members of the Cal Poly Swim and Dive team. As many of you know, this program meant the world to us and to countless other student-athletes who called the Anderson Aquatic Center home.
We are also the current owners of the @savecpswimdive Instagram account managed by a committee of fellow Cal Poly swimmers and divers.
When we first launched this fundraiser, we promised to return all donations if the team was not reinstated. Since reinstatement has not happened, all previous donations have been returned.
But our fight is not over. We are relaunching this campaign to fund the next phase of our efforts to bring back the Cal Poly Swim and Dive team by Fall 2025. This time, we are asking for your support to help us cover the real costs of making that goal possible.
Your donation will go toward:
- Legal and strategic expenses
- Public awareness and media outreach
- Any reinstatement efforts approved by the committee of current swimmers and divers.
